Depending on your defensive metric of choice, Friedl is adequate to good in CF, nowhere near elite. He's also got a noodle arm.

Maybe they think putting Friedl in LF may improve LF defense and keep him healthier?

Who knows? All I know is this is the Reds so this will fail.

That's the most cup half full I've seen you in a while brother. I like it but just don't get comfortable there. Lol

I'm definitely always going to defer to you wrestling guys but I watch everything OSU and I have hope until it's over.

This might be the closest thing to a sure loss, aside from having your linebacker try to cover the Heisman trophy winning WR until he drops, but I hope our boys stay hungry all the way through.

I was really impressed with the Mitchell Messinbrink piece on BTN though. That kid is an animal.

Edit: so #1 vs not really #2. Ouch

Friedl is one of the best defenders in the game and last season, although injured a lot, was one of the best least off hitters. Not his fault the guys behind him sucked ass.

Fucking Reds just keep being Reds.

Sparty taking on #8 Louisville right out the gates. Man baseball and softball for the B1G is a bitch to start the season.

Sparty managed to win 4-3

Not so much luck elsewhere though. Indiana getting killed by #11 UNC and Washington getting killed by #17 NC State.

Iowa who's supposed to be one of the better teams in the B1G lost 15-6 to Kansas State as well.

Our hats need an update.

Texas up 1-0 in the 2nd. I can't watch it . It's on SECPN. Ugh. All the other ones are ESPN+

Defense and late inning pitching killed us last year. Good stuff

that to me is one thing the SEC Network does well.
every single home game is televised. sometimes online only with SEC Network+.
some road games are on ESPN+.

only games I won't have (legal) access to is the tournament in Jacksonville in a couple weeks.
D1 Baseball is streaming that one and I'm not paying Kendall Rogers for a horsehair product that is never able to keep up with demand and just buffers all game long.

You can bet ‘no’ on the 2010 gold if you want to.

7-1 final!

Good to only use 2 pitchers too with a DH tomorrow. Positive start.

Up 7-1 top 9

His mom quit her job as a news reporter to become his manager and his personal issues caused him to flame out early.

That 2013 group could probably get their own 30 for 30.

Dunne has an assist and Bilka has a goal so far. US up 6-0 against Italy in the 3rd.
